Started with random humour, proceeded with really obscure shit.

noice. but since i'm the third in this thread alone to know and love it, it's hardly forgotten or obscure.

Every time I think I've become a little more educated, I get hit with the pleb stick. I'd never even heard of this.

this shit is awesome, but it's just had a movie made of it, that doesn't count as forgotten in my books

Considering that it has a NYRB edition you think it'd be less obscure, but I've never seen /lit/ talking about it- and it's damn good.

I think this is obscure? I've never talked to anyone who's read it, at least. Pretty decent brain-in-jar dystopian thing.
